Pinch
This was a quick little experiment to see how well Javascript could compress if its AST was serialized into a compact binary form.
Tested on React DOM, minified.
The un-compressed (no Gzip nor Brotli) results were pretty good - about 28% less than the original.
However, Gzip and Brotli compression performed worse than on the original, to nobody's surprise.
This wasn't a super serious or scientific test, I just wanted to see what would happen.
Final results (.p.js
extension is the "pinched" version):
120585 react.js
34550 react.js.br
39617 react.js.z
88257 react.p.js
37335 react.p.js.br
43357 react.p.js.z
